Journey Church CB Sunday Past Cast

Josh opens the scriptures to teach us why and how to know Jesus.  We were made for this and it's the only real place to find life.  Search for him in the scriptures, turn from all the things that draw us away and receive his love by faith through his grace.  And then look around and see how you can pray for others around you to experience this same grace.

Naomi shares with us what the Lord has been doing in her life lately, drawing her into a deeper relationship with the Jesus through intentional pursuit of Him in the scriptures, in relationships and in practices designed to give us life.  This is the life meant for every follower and Naomi gives us some practical ways to abide in this life.

Jesus came to serve, and by his Spirit we can serve others.  When we spend time in the word and presence of Jesus our heart is changed to reflect his heart for those around us.  Like Martha, we can be changed to serve from a place of encounter, rather than from a sense of duty.  This type of serving brings life rather than draining it.  Listen to Lena's teaching or serving as way into the rest Jesus promises and learn how to serve like Jesus served.

Jesus gave us a promise that when he returned to heaven he would send us a Helper; the Holy Spirit. This is the same spirit that empowered his miraculous works on earth.  Walking by his Spirit means we can know and experience all the promises Jesus gave us.  Ashley opens the scriptures to point us to those promises and encrourages us to lived based on those truths.

Jesus told his followers to be believe and be baptized.  Joe teaches from the scriptures that to see the kingdom of heaven and walk in the power of the spirit we have to know and participate in the gift of Baptism in water and spirit and to know and give thanks for the baptism for Gods wrath against sin that Jesus took on our behalf, sparing us a baptism we could never bare.  

 

If you've been listening to our podcast or responded to the Gospel some else but haven't been baptized, please reach out so we can talk to you about this important aspect of your walk with Jesus.  We'd love to help you do this or connect you with another body of believers in your area who can help you go further in your faith.

Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to his believers that they would do what they saw Jesus do and even greater things (among other reasons).  Part of that, the scriptures say, is signs and wonders, healings, casting out demons, are meant to be an experience we participate in as we walk by the spirit.  Jonny shows us in the word and with personal testimony that God is still in the business of healing and delivering in order to reveal the power and grace of Jesus in the life of believers and to those who will believe the Gospel.

In the final week of our Becoming a Disciple Series, Lena teaching us what it looks like to put the things we've been learning over these past 8 weeks into practice.  Jesus promises us that we will have wells of life coming from the Holy Spirit that's been given to us.

We have been given a victorious life in Jesus victory on the cross.  Many of us walk around in life feeling the power of enemy in our life and forget the power we have.  Knowing and practicing the disciplines found in the scriptures enables and empowers us to walk the way Jesus calls us to, as kings in His kingdom.  Danielle unlocks some tools and teaching for us to walk this life out.

In week 6 of Becoming a disciples, Rick opens the scriptures to remind us of the importance of being joined to a body.  God designed our own body to work together with all it's parts to accomplish the work he has made for us.  Paul reminds the Corinthian church that every part is vital and every part is different, but any part that's not functioning in health and freedom isn't fulfilling it's potential and purpose.

In our Series on Becoming a Disciple, Jonny takes us through what repentance in action looks. Repentance isn't and idea but an action word and requires us to turn to God, confess and move ahead in step with him.
